Manchester United face Tottenham this weekend as confidence builds following an impressive run under interim manager Michael Carrick.
The Red Devils kept their senior squad intact during January, allowing fringe players to leave while maintaining stability for crucial fixtures.
Carrick’s return has delivered instant results, with three straight league wins boosting morale and reviving United’s top-four ambitions.

Victories over Manchester City, Arsenal, and Fulham have eased pressure and restored belief around Old Trafford and the fanbase.
Attention now turns to Spurs, with United knowing another win could further strengthen their position in the Champions League race.
Amorim stance and Mainoo’s resurgence stand out
Ruben Amorim has chosen to delay speaking publicly about his United exit, a decision viewed as respectful toward Carrick’s tenure.
The Portuguese coach reportedly wants to avoid distractions, allowing Carrick full control during a critical phase of the season.
Meanwhile, Kobbie Mainoo has thrived under the interim boss, starting every league game and dominating midfield battles consistently.
His resurgence contrasts sharply with limited minutes under Amorim, where opportunities were scarce despite his obvious talent, reports Mirror
Fulham’s Alex Iwobi even joked about Mainoo’s physicality after suffering a hand injury during their recent encounter.
Carrick’s faith has transformed Mainoo’s outlook, with contract talks expected as United plan around the England midfielder long-term.
